Thanks Pat I'm sure he knew down deep, but with all he had going on with 
his health and etc. and  his kids and grand kids I'm sure anything about 
me was not a concern or problem for him. . Did you get my post to you on 
your requests, I wondered how your mom was doing?

Dear Brad,

I'm sure your Uncle knows how much you love him and appreciate what he has 
done in your life.

I'm praying for you, and for his family.

Love,
Pat Ferguson

Some time ago, quite some time ago, I asked for prayer concerning an uncle 
of mine who dealt with throat cancer. Recently he was admitted to the 
hospital with muscle spasms, breathing difficulty and eventually caught 
pneumonia. He was doing pretty good, kicked the  pneumonia, getting feisty 
to get out and wanting to go home, they did send him home. My mom called 
last night and said he passed on. I don't know what the exact cause was, 
perhaps he just got tired of fighting the health issues he had over the 
past 5 years or so.  I know yawls  heart and condolences so no need to 
reply but if you would keep his kids and family in prayer during this 
tough time. I was hoping to go visit him after he got home. I hadn't seen 
him in a number of years. He was responsible for my interest in guitar and 
was my initial inspiration and encouragement. He was special to me because 
I doubt I'd have even thought of guitar were it not for his influence, 
plus he was just a cool guy. I had hoped to let him know just how much his 
influence was, but that is my own doing, a lesson learned in communicating 
with loved ones. Anyway I'm at peace with that aspect of it, and it's not 
about me anyway. he's got a passel of grandkids as a credit to his being 
here and his wife will be quite busy with them I'd guess to keep her busy. 
I pray it draws others closer to God.

Brad
